    There are THREE releases at Big Fish today. The TGT is Chronicles of Vida: The Story of the Missing Princess, which advertises itself as being over 10 hours of gameplay. I'm reading that it's mostly hidden objects, so, I don't doubt that it's a long game! The soft releases are Nancy Drew 26: Tomb of the Lost Queen and Grimm Reaper: Hidden Tales, which is one of those "Free to Play" games. The Daily Deal is Spirits of Mystery 2: Song of the Phoenix, and the GameAgent 1/2 price sale is still running today.

    GameHouse has a new one called Treasure of the Caribbean Seas, and iWin has Ghost: Elisa Cameron.

    Steam's Daily Deal is Dead Space Pack for $9.99, and GamersGate's is Silent Hunter 5: Battle of the Atlantic Gold Edition for $2.49.

    Surprised to see Nancy Drew as soft release, but I guess not a big seller with them.

    The last ND was a soft release, too! Pure adventures are not the #1 genre for the Big Fish crowd.

    The TGT at Big Fish is The Veil Of Mystery: Seven Little Gnomes, for once being the third portal to get the game (instead of the first.) The game is a love-it or hate-it, apparently, getting both blasted and full marks, depending on the reviewer. There is a soft release of Jigsaw Boom 3, and the Daily Deal is Whispered Stories: Sandman.

    iWin now has Oozi: Earth Adventure, a classic Sonic the Hedgehog-style platformer. I know that there's not a whole lot of interest in these games here at GGG, but I love this kind of game (Donkey Kong Country-style is even better, but you know~ Belly laugh)

    Steam's Daily Deal is Iron Front: Liberation 1944 for $6.79, and GamersGate's is Supreme Commander 2 for $3.75.

    The TGT at Big Fish is Rolling Idols: Lost City, a match-3 game that it seems is not terribly intuitive. I'll check back on it and make a topic later if it starts getting some good reviews... Perhaps the current review is from someone not used to match-3's (?) The Daily Deal is Tesla's Tower: The Wardenclyffe Mystery, and the Catch of the Week is Living Legends: Ice Rose. They're running a Love Chronicles Bundle Sale where if you buy the CE of Love Chronicles 3: Salvation, you can get the previous SE's in the series for $2.99 each using the code SALVATION.

    GameHouse now has Whispers 2: Revelation, a difficult adventure-driven IHOG which I really enjoyed. You can see my review HERE for more information. Smile

    iWin now has the Collector's Edition of Cursed Fates: The Headless Horseman.

    Steam's Daily Deal is Super House of Dead Ninjas for $3.49, and GamersGate's is Lucius for $7.50.

    The TGT at Big Fish is Weather Lord 2: Hidden Realm, and it has been released at iWin, as well. This second game is different than the first, being more geared like a My Kingdom for the Princess or Roads of Rome-type of play. The Daily Deal is Jewel Quest Mysteries: The Oracle of Ur, and the special promo today is 20% off of all games using the code SAVE20.

    GameHouse now has Mysteries of the Undead: The Cursed Island, and Alawar has gotten Judge Dee: The City God Case.

    The TGT at Big Fish is the Collector's Edition of Reveries: Sisterly Love. This is one I beta tested and really enjoyed. The screens don't do justice to the beauty of the scenes. Many found the game to be too cute, but I was not overwhelmed with sugar-shock when I played it, myself Wink You can see my thoughts HERE. I'll be waiting to see what the weekend deal is, but if you buy today, you can get the SE's of Witch Hunter: Stolen Beauty and/or Echoes of the Past: Revenge of the Witch for $2.99 each using the code SISTERS. The Daily Deal Millionaire Manor: The Hidden Object Show.
